Have the MUD and website just gone down, or is it my computer or ISP being weird? Can't connect after getting disconnected, or get onto armageddon.org
Yes unreachable.
It happens occasionally. It usually comes back fairly quickly.
Is it still down for others too?
Yes still down.
I have been trying to log in for 7 minutes now with nothing but timeout messages.
EVERYONE FOCUS ON YOUR SCREEN AND REALLY REALLY WISH THE MUD COMES BACK UP AND IT WILL. REMEMBER YOU NEED TO OPEN YOURSELF UP TO THE UNIVERSE IN ORDER TO RECEIVE.
The game is indeed unreachable at the moment. We are contacting the provider to have them resolve the issue. If I get an update for a time to resolution I will be sure to update everyone!
Hahahaah 10 minutes into the crash and peoples lives have already ended ^_^
(I am repeatedly hitting connect too don't worry)

Wait...I don't understand. My human interactions were going just fine before the game crashed. So were my half-elf interactions!
Are there other sorts of interactions that I'm unaware of, here?

If playing Arm has taught me anything, it's that staying indoors at all times is the key to a prolonged, fully-limbed life.

Worse your PC got dehydrated and then run over by a mek. Thank you for playing though, please try again.
Her shifty, dark shadowed eyes flickering about with paranoia as she walks up to the Shady Ginka, the occasional twisting twitch of her neck jerking her head to the side, speaking lowly, the mantis-tatted woman says in sirihish:
"Hey man, you got the goods? Huh? Huh? I neeeeeed my fix."
Bringing her bare, track-marked arms up to her chest, twiddling her fingers together obsessively, the mantis-tatted woman says in sirihish:
"C'mon man, just a liiiittle push, I've got my needle, spoon, and candle ready and waitin'."

Pick us up some cheezeburgahs
Progress: The website is back up, connection requests to the game are immediate rejections now instead of forever long timeouts.
I can't take the rejection!
I'm off to bed :)
TOMORROW ARM SHALL RISE AGAIN.
Nooooo please don't reject me.
Hmm, it looks like the VPS provider is InterServer, and they don't have any RFO posted, or mention of the issue on their twitter.

Oh my god-king its an elf.
Aww, kids finish soccer...lunch all finished, down for a nap/tv finally.
Time for Arm! Nope.
For sure, this was going to be my big day for arming, but back to the grindstone it is without my thrillz.
Cleaned the shit out of my house in the meantime! :D
Edit: LOL nevermind, I can be a nerd on Arma for a bit, thanks!! Imms rock!!
The server was down. The game should be up now!

Still not letting me in.
EDIT: Nevermind, letting me in now.
This is unfortunate. For reasons unknown to me, the crash rolled back part of the world. See http://gdb.armageddon.org/index.php/topic,45964.msg770199.html#new

Is this fixed now?
Yes.
Hmm...I am still getting 'security error' on the website's java client, which I prefer to use, but can log on fine on another client. Anyone have an idea what's causing that problem?
What sort of security error? Is it being thrown by the browser, your antivirus, or some other tpa? Details.

I think now and again a crash, which we had recently, can screw with the java client.

AFAIK applets can only connect back to where they're loaded from. Unless you have other settings on.
I'm having the same problem with the main website's Fmud client thing. Works fine on other clients.
Arm needs a new engine.

We usually don't put up any announcements for reboots since it takes moments to reboot. In this case, we rebooted earlier today to do maintenance, and rebooted just now in order to make sure a new area of the game stays "in the game" after reboots.
Oh it's all set already? Great, thanks :)
